Next Door Neighbors by Pat Sandy for June 04, 2024

But nobody listens to the 5th doctor. The 5th doctor is usually the one that was holding out for a larger bribe.

I suppose the commercial’s tune is similar to “Mairzy Doats.”

The one doctor out of five has passed away from an allergic reaction….

I like the insurance company that claims they don’t have a jingle or a mascot and every ad shows a different mascot that is rejected.

Medications with unpronounceable names and ingredients.

I wonder what it’s like writing jingles for meds… ♫ ♫ When you have nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach… diarrhea!! ♫ ♫ Ooo… that’s catchy!

Oral phenylephrine HCl has been demonstrated ineffective against sinus congestion (although the nasal spray does work). Studies show _less than 1% _ gets into the bloodstream. Yet it continues to be sold for such purposes.

I discovered this years ago when pseudoephedrine was put behind the pharmacy counter. Pseudoephedrine DOES work and you can still get it. You just have to ask for it, show your driver’s license and not buy it in boxcar lots.

Doctors don’t have an ear for jingles

I heard earworms can lead to brain worms. But that’s okay, they have a medication for that

Jardiance jingle is the worst

The jingle that made 5 out 5 doctors sick.Take Fizadol, you’ll have a ball. Take Fizadol, no sneeze will call. Take Fizadol you can have it all!

The fifth doctor actually tried it.
